THE BIGGEST LOSER --(8:00PM-9:30PM) --(TV-PG)

"No.109"

FINAL WEIGH IN AT THE RANCH -- Caroline Rhea ("Sabrina, The Teenage Witch") hosts this unscripted, one-hour series in which two competing teams follow comprehensive diet and exercise plans to undergo radical physical makeovers. After nine weeks of strenuous workouts at the hands of Trainers Jillian and Bob, it's payback time as the contestants turn the tables and "train" the trainers. This episode is also the final weigh in at the ranch, preceded by the contestants reflecting on this journey that has changed their lives, and followed by a vote to trim the players' numbers down to three. Tearful goodbyes then accompany the trio as they realize it is time to go back to their regular lives without the support of their teams and trainers.
